|description=In Pali ''Namo''. The first word of a daily invocation among Buddhists, meaning “I humbly trust, or adore, or acknowledge” the Lord; as: “Namo tasso Bhagavato Arahato” etc., addressed to Lord Buddha. The priests are called “Masters of Namah”—both Buddhist and Taoist, because this word is used in liturgy and prayers, in the invocation of the ''Triratna ''(''q.v''.), and with a slight change in the occult incantations to the ''Bodhisvattvas ''and ''Nirmânakâyas.'' {{ctd-source|TG}}.
